< Ieremia 11 >
1 O KA olelo i hiki mai io Ieremia la mai o Iehova mai, i ka i ana mai,
The word that came to Jeremiah from the LORD, saying,
2 E hoolohe oukou i na olelo o keia berita, a e olelo aku i na kanaka o ka Iuda, a i ka poe e noho ana ma Ierusalema;
“Hear the words of this covenant, and speak to the men of Judah, and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem;
3 E i aku ia lakou, Ke i mai nei o Iehova, ke Akua o ka Iseraela penei, E poino auanei ke kanaka i malama ole i na olelo o keia berita,
and say to them, the LORD, the God of Israel says: ‘Cursed is the man who doesn’t hear the words of this covenant,
4 A'u i kauoha aku ai i ko oukou poe kupuna, i ka la a'u i lawe mai ai ia lakou mai ka aina o Aigupita, a mai ke kapuahi hao mai, i ka i ana aku, E hoolohe mai i kuu leo, a e hana i na mea e like me na mea a pau a'u i kauoha aku nei ia oukou; pela oukou e lilo ai i poe kanaka no'u, a owau auanei ko oukou Akua:
which I commanded your fathers in the day that I brought them out of the land of Egypt, out of the iron furnace,’ saying, ‘Obey my voice and do them, according to all which I command you; so you shall be my people, and I will be your God;
5 I hooko wau i ka hoohiki a'u i hoohiki ai i ko oukou poe makua, e haawi ia lakou i ka aina e kahe ana o ka waiu, a me ka mele, e like me ia i keia la. Alaila olelo aku la au, i aku la, Pela io no, e Iehova.
that I may establish the oath which I swore to your fathers, to give them a land flowing with milk and honey,’ as it is today.” Then I answered, and said, “Amen, LORD.”
6 Alaila, olelo mai la o Iehova ia'u, E kala aku oe i keia mau olelo a pau maloko o na kulanakauhale o ka Iuda, a ma na alanui o Ierusalema, e i aku, E hoolehe oukou i na olelo o keia berita, a e hana hoi ia mau mea.
The LORD said to me, “Proclaim all these words in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem, saying, ‘Hear the words of this covenant, and do them.
7 No ka mea, olelo ikaika loa aku la au i ko oukou poe makua, i ka la a'u i lawe mai ai ia lakou, mai ka aina o Aigupita mai, a hiki mai hoi i keia la, e ala ana no i ka wanaao, me ka olelo ikaika aku, i ka i ana, E malama i ko'u leo.
For I earnestly protested to your fathers in the day that I brought them up out of the land of Egypt, even to this day, rising early and protesting, saying, “Obey my voice.”
8 Aka, aole lakou i malama, aole i haliu mai i ko lakou pepeiao; hele no kela mea keia mea mamuli o ka paakiki o kona naau hewa: nolaila, e lawe no wau maluna o lakou i na olelo a pau o keia berita, a'u i kauoha aku ai ia lakou e hana; a hana ole lakou.
Yet they didn’t obey, nor turn their ear, but everyone walked in the stubbornness of their evil heart. Therefore I brought on them all the words of this covenant, which I commanded them to do, but they didn’t do them.’”
9 A olelo mai la o Iehova ia'u, Ua loaa ke kipi ana iwaena o na kanaka o ka Iuda, a iwaena hoi o ka poe noho ma Ierusalema.
The LORD said to me, “A conspiracy is found among the men of Judah, and among the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
10 Ua huli hope lakou mamuli o na hewa o ko lakou poe kupuna, ka poe i hoole, aole lakou e hoolohe i ka'u mau olelo: a hahai lakou mamuli o na'kua e, e malama ia lakou. A ua uhaki ko ka hale o ka Iseraela, a me ko ka hale o ka Iuda i ka'u berita, i ka mea a'u i hana'i me ko lakou poe kupuna.
They have turned back to the iniquities of their forefathers, who refused to hear my words. They have gone after other gods to serve them. The house of Israel and the house of Judah have broken my covenant which I made with their fathers.
11 Nolaila, ke olelo mai nei o Iehova penei, Aia hoi, e lawe mai no wau i ka hewa maluna o lakou, i ka mea hoi e hiki ole ai ia lakou ke pakele aku; a ina kahea mai lakou ia'u, aole au e hoolohe aku ia lakou.
Therefore the LORD says, ‘Behold, I will bring evil on them which they will not be able to escape; and they will cry to me, but I will not listen to them.
12 Alaila, e hele no ko na kulanakauhale o ka Iuda, a me ka poe e noho ana ma Ierusalema, a e kahea aku i na akua, i na mea i kaumaha ai lakou i ka mea aia. Aka, aole e hoola iki mai kela poe akua ia lakou, i ka wa o ko lakou popilikia.
Then the cities of Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem will go and cry to the gods to which they offer incense, but they will not save them at all in the time of their trouble.
13 No ka mea, e like me ka heluna o kou mau kulanakauhale, pela no kou poe akua, e ka Iuda; a e like me ka heluna o na alanui o Ierusalema, pela no oukou i hana'i i na kuahu, no ka mea hilahila, i na kuahu hoi e kuni ai i ka mea ala no Baala.
For according to the number of your cities are your gods, Judah; and according to the number of the streets of Jerusalem you have set up altars to the shameful thing, even altars to burn incense to Baal.’
14 Nolaila, mai pule oe no keia poe kanaka, aole hoi e hookiekie i ke kahea ana, a me ka pule ana no lakou; no ka mea, aole au e hoolohe i ka wa e kahea mai ai lakou ia'u no ko lakou popilikia.
“Therefore don’t pray for this people. Don’t lift up cry or prayer for them; for I will not hear them in the time that they cry to me because of their trouble.
15 Heaha ka kuu mea aloha maloko o ko'u hale? Ua hana oia i ka hewa me na mea he nui, a ua lilo aku la ka io laa, mai ou aku la. Ia oe e hana hewa'i, olioli no oe.
What has my beloved to do in my house, since she has behaved lewdly with many, and the holy flesh has passed from you? When you do evil, then you rejoice.”
16 Kapa aku la o Iehova i kou inoa, He laau oliva uliuli, maikai, a maikai ka hua; me ka leo o ka walaau nui, ua hoa oia i ke ahi maluna ona, a ua uhaiia na lala ona.
The LORD called your name, “A green olive tree, beautiful with goodly fruit.” With the noise of a great roar he has kindled fire on it, and its branches are broken.
17 No ka mea, o Iehova o na kaua, ka mea nana oe i kanu, ua olelo mai no oia i ka hewa nou, no ka hewa o ko ka hale o Iseraela, a me ko ka hale o Iuda, ka mea a lakou i hana'i e ku e ia lakou iho, e hoonaukiuki mai ia'u, i ke kaumaha ana i ka mea ala no Baala.
For the LORD of Armies, who planted you, has pronounced evil against you, because of the evil of the house of Israel and of the house of Judah, which they have done to themselves in provoking me to anger by offering incense to Baal.
18 A ua hoike mai o Iehova ia'u, a ua ike no wau. Alaila, hoike mai oe ia'u i ka lakou hana ana.
The LORD gave me knowledge of it, and I knew it. Then you showed me their doings.
19 Aka, ua like no wau me ke keiki hipa, me ka bipi hoi i laweia mai no ke kaluaia. Aole au i ike, ua imi manao hewa mai lakou ia'u, e i ana, E hooki kakou ia laau, a me kona hua, a e uhuki ia ia, mai ka aina aku o ka poe e ola ana, i ole e manao hou ia'i kona inoa.
But I was like a gentle lamb that is led to the slaughter. I didn’t know that they had devised plans against me, saying, “Let’s destroy the tree with its fruit, and let’s cut him off from the land of the living, that his name may be no more remembered.”
20 Aka, o oe o Iehova o na kaua, ka mea hooponopono ma ka pololei, ka mea i hoao i ka opu, a me ka naau, e hoike mai oe ia'u i kou ukiuki ia lakou; no ka mea, ua hoike aku au ia oe i ko'u hihia.
But, LORD of Armies, who judges righteously, who tests the heart and the mind, I will see your vengeance on them; for to you I have revealed my cause.
21 Nolaila, ke olelo mai nei o Iehova no na kanaka o Anetota, ka poe i imi i kou ola, me ka olelo mai, Mai wanana mai oe ma ka inoa o Iehova, o make auanei oe i ko makou lima.
“Therefore the LORD says concerning the men of Anathoth, who seek your life, saying, ‘You shall not prophesy in the LORD’s name, that you not die by our hand’—
22 Nolaila, ke olelo mai nei o Iehova o na kaua, Aia hoi, e hoopai no wau ia lakou. E make no na kanaka ui i ka pahikaua; e make no hoi ka lakou poe keikikane, a me ka lakou poe kaikamahine i ka wi.
therefore the LORD of Armies says, ‘Behold, I will punish them. The young men will die by the sword. Their sons and their daughters will die by famine.
23 Aole hoi e koe mai kekahi o lakou; no ka mea, e lawe mai no wau i ka hewa maluna o na kanaka o Anetota, i ka makahiki hoi o ko lakou hoopaiia.
There will be no remnant to them, for I will bring evil on the men of Anathoth, even the year of their visitation.’”
